I have been charging more than that.
The ones I sell have a list price of over $74.00 per set of five. I sell them for $50.00 per set of 5, which covers my shipping, allows a small profit for my trouble, and allows me to make a small donation to this forum.
I know what the distributor (lowest) price point is from the manufacturer, and it is just over $6.00 plus shipping. I cannot get that price unless I buy a large quantity.
If NAPA sells the exact item for $7.00, then they are not making much of a profit, but that's the American way, isn't it? The big fish eat the little fish.
If they are the same as mine, I will now buy mine at NAPA. I suggest that everyone else buy them there, too. I searched for quite a while to find heavy-duty metal ones, very close to the originals. Are you sure that they are the same as the ones I sell?
Thanks for bringing them to our attention.
